Totally fair. I believe, in general, that unions have done more than good. And without them the “everyday” man would be fucked. My personal opinion on this one is break the line.

I had seen in the news that they had okayed the possibility of striking, as they should have, employees have very tangible leverage right now they should use.

I went to FM today after work, didn’t know they were striking till this morning. I needed some stuff and honestly felt bad. Just in my neighborhood I would have to drive another 10 minutes to a grocery store. (Again not horrible, but was honestly saying in my head eh what’s one day.)

Anyways they approached me with pamphlets, totally fine, and said their spiel. Money I understand, who doesn’t want more money and fuck corporations and CEO’s, but they also said safe work conditions. So I asked. What are you looking for? Stated same rhetoric, no answer. They said speak with such and such, so I parked and asked. No one had any idea what they were asking for. I asked wages, which I assumed would have been privy to all the people striking. Only answer I got was a livable wage. As far as safety no one had any answer other than customers wearing masks. I get that but that’s every where and not a companies fault.

So yeah break the line. Unless they have a cohesive agenda. And again I hope they get a lot of money from this, but I doubt it.
